-Stretch occasionally throughout the day as you walk past (every two hours is fine). When the dough has become noticeably larger in volume (1.5 times original or so), stretch it 3 times or so and put in a proving basket, and let rise for 2.5 to 3 hours depending on ambient temperature.

 Pre-heat your oven to 230 degrees with a dutch oven inside. When the oven is hot, take out the dutch oven, tip your dough from the proving basket into the dutch oven, score the top with a sharp wet knife, put the lid on, and bake for 20 minutes at 230. Then take the lid off, and bake for a further 50 minutes at 180 degrees. Pre-heat your oven to 230 degrees with a dutch oven inside.

 +If you don't have a dutch oven, turn the bread out of the proving basket onto a slightly oiled tray, put a cup of water into a tray at the bottom or your oven, score the bread, and bake for 20 minutes at 230 degrees. Then lower the temperature to 180 and bake for 40 to 50 minutes at 180 degrees.
  
 When baked, put it onto a cooling rack, and leave until it's room temperature. Best not cut into it before it's cold, as it will dry out faster if you do. When baked, put it onto a cooling rack, and leave until it's room temperature.
